2
My name is Charlie Cooper, and I'm nine years old.
3
I go to Trinity Beach State School.
4
I have an idea that is worth spreading.
5
If I share with you a new way to make friends, and help people just like me find confidence, would you listen?
6
Let me tell you a bit about myself.
7
I was born on the 21st of June, 2005, in a small town in New South Wales, called Narrabri.
8
I live at home with mom, dad, my brother, sister.
9
I have two dogs and a bearded dragon.
10
I often play with my Lego, and I love to fly planes on my dad's flight simulator.
11
I'm a quiet kid, and don't often tell people how I feel.
12
But Mom always knows when I am sad.
13
When I was six years old and in grade two, my teacher noticed I was having trouble at school, not only with my schoolwork, but also in making friends.
14
After I had my eyes tested, we found out I was very long-sighted.
15
Then I got new glasses, which helped me with my schoolwork, but not with my confidence.
16
I got called names, and this hurt my feelings.
17
But I couldn't see without them.
18
Around this time, I didn't have many friends.
19
One day, after swimming lessons, my school shirt was even flushed down the toilet.
20
This made me feel sad.
21
But I still went to school every day, and tried my hardest, even when people would laugh at my handwriting.
22
A year or so later, we went on a family holiday to America.
23
When we were there, Mom and I read a news article about a boy who had a similar idea to help people who had new friends.
24
We got home, Christmas came and went, and I was still feeling sad at break times.
25
Mom and Dad got me some extra tutoring.
26
This helped heaps.
27
And I also repeated grade two, which at the time made me sad.
28
I found it hard to play with other kids, so I ended up playing on my own at the library with the bricks.
29
From there, I wrote a letter, which a kind man from school called Lee handed the letter to the local hardware store.
30
They thought the idea was great, and ended up supplying all the wood and varnish for the project.
31
Then Lee took the letter to the Men's Shed.
32
They were also very excited to help out with the project, and built the bench for our school, free of charge.
33
This idea is one worth spreading.
34
It's such a simple idea to create friendship and eliminate loneliness.
35
The idea is that if someone is sad or has no friends to play with, they can sit on the bench.
36
And the whole school knows this friendship bench has a purpose.
37
If someone is on the bench, then other children in the playground are going to invite that child to play, or ask them if they want to walk and talk.
38
My school principal has told everybody the rule of the bench, and it's monitored by teachers, too.
39
The thing is, with people's help and your own hard work, anything is possible, even if you think it's not sometimes.
40
I would like to see a buddy bench in every school in Australia.
41
That way children won't have to feel how I felt.
42
The bench acts as a friendship tool to help people in making friends.
43
The bench is now used daily all because I brought this idea to my principal's attention.
44
The bench encourages this happy, safe place, a place where kids can feel safe and welcome.
45
This is what my school is, a school where the word "bullying" is not used, but where happy and safe play is encouraged.
46
Now it may be small, but I believe that little people just like me can really make a big difference in the world if some wood, hammer and nails can make people feel special and included.
47
And this really is an idea that is worth spreading.
48
Thank you for your time.
49
(Applause)

关于本课

在本课中,学习者将通过观看Charlie Cooper的TEDx演讲,练习英语口语和听力技能。这段演讲传递了一个积极的信息,强调了即使是小孩子也能通过简单的行动来改善友谊和消除孤独。学习者可以在听的过程中关注Charlie的表达方式,并尝试模仿他的语气和节奏,以提高自己的英语口语能力。

关键词汇与短语

  • 朋友 (friends) - 与他人分享生活的伙伴。
  • 自信 (confidence) - 相信自己的能力和价值。
  • 友谊长椅 (friendship bench) - 一个让人们在学校中更容易交朋友的地方。

练习技巧

在观看这段演讲时,学习者可以将shadowing技巧运用其中。由于Charlie的语速适中且语调自然,学习者可以尝试以下方法:

  • 第一遍观看:专注倾听,理解演讲的内容和主题,不需要跟读。
  • 第二遍观看:开始跟随着音频,尽量模仿Charlie的发音和语气。集中注意力于他的情感表达和重音。
  • 调整速度:如果感觉跟不上,可以使用播放速度调整功能,降低音频速度,确保能准确模仿。
  • 记录发音:将自己的声音录下来,跟Charlie的演讲进行对比,找出需要改进的地方。

通过这些练习,学习者将在英语口语练习中取得显著进步,增强自己的信心,并用自己的声音进行有效的表达。

什么是跟读法?

跟读法 (Shadowing) 是一种有科学依据的语言学习技巧,最初开发用于专业口译员的培训,并由多语言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。这个方法简单而强大:您在听英语母语原声的同时立即大声重复——就像是一个延迟1-2秒紧跟说话者的影子。与被动听力或语法练习不同,跟读法强迫您的大脑和口腔肌肉同时处理并模仿真实的讲话模式。研究表明它能显着提高发音准确性,语调,节奏,连读,听力理解和口语流利度——使其成为雅思口语备考和真实英语交流最有效的方法之一。
